A tender and delicious Italian-seasoned meatloaf with mozzarella and tomato sauce.

INGREDIENTS:

1 yellow onion, diced
1 fire roasted red pepper, diced
olive oil, for sauteing
5 cloves garlic
1 vine-ripened tomato, diced
1 tablespoon dried Italian seasoning
1 egg
3/4 cup tomato sauce
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 + 1/4 pounds ground beef or turkey
1/2 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, grated
1 + 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Heat a skillet with enough oil to cover bottom of pan over medium-low heat, add onion and pepper, saute until tender. Add garlic, saute until fragrant; add tomato and Italian seasoning, saute 3-4 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In a large bowl whisk together egg, 1/3 cup tomato sauce and Worcestershire. Add ground meat, bread crumbs, black pepper, Parmesan and sauteed vegetables. Combine with a fork; mix in 1 cup of mozzarella.
  3. In a large, greased roasting pan form the meat into a loaf. Spread the remaining 1/2 cup sauce over top and sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella. Bake about 45 minutes or until no longer pink in the middle. Let set five minutes before serving.
